Taking place on the launch date for the 2025 ‘Mmmake Your Mark’ campaign, they are looking forward to welcoming Amie Burke, the Learning Engagement Lead, from the Institute of Grocery Distribution, who are spear-heading the initiative. This is a national campaign for all food and drink businesses to participate in. The aim is to provide an engaging, unified, and consistent message for the entire industry to get behind, and to showcase why this industry is a fantastic, and a vital, place to work!
Additional speakers from Devon County Council, University of Exeter, Food Drink Devon, the Apricot Centre, Riverford Organic, Visit Devon and South Devon College will share their perspectives. Hosted at the South Devon Food Hub, a centre of innovation and collaboration, this event is your chance to learn from others with similar challenges, spark ideas, and shape the future of careers in food in our region.
